Although not common in Portland, vandalism does occur and can cost businesses thousands in glass replacement.  Worse still, there is always to the risk of injury from glass shards, and broken glass pieces.

The recent cases of vandalism that coincided with the Occupy Portland (Occupy Portland vehemently denies involvement in any activity which damaged commercial or personal property) demonstrations serve to demonstrate this clearly.  Broken glass at the Chase Bank Branch and Wells Fargo branch posed a menace to bank staff and customers until it was disposed of and replaced.

Anti- shatter window film is simple to install, invisible to the eye and provides your store front or business with excellent protection from such attacks.   Once installed anti-shatter window film provides 24 hours, 365 days of protection.  Glass may be broken with anti-shatter film, but will remain in place, held securely by the protective film.  This way the glass can be replaced without any mess or risk of cuts or injury.

It’s not rocket-science – Anti Graffiti film is a simple application of film which protects your glass underneath.  If the glass is attacked by graffiti artists, then the film is removed and replaced – but the glass remains unscathed.

We have applied Anti Graffiti film across the Portland Metro area to protect university properties, glass installation in the public domain such as bus shelters and retail environments – and I personally am convinced that the reason there is not ore demand for this cost saving, simple protection is simply lack of awareness among business owners and property owners alike.
